These cryptic tweets pussying around the subject do no one any favours and just make you look sad and petty. It's a blessing that Jon isn't a Facebooker or a Twitterer, his silence and show-must-go-on stance in a lot more dignified than Richie's veiled stabs, whilst intermittently professing love for the fans that he has, for whatever reason or fault, let down by choice.

Just wish they would shut up and end the saga one way or another and the fans are given the respect we deserve to let us know where we stand with our favourite band, rather than deliberately holding out and letting us stump up the cash for tickets etc... with false hope and maybes.
But *nobody* seemed happy with the initial silence, and begged for some words.
At least it seems a cryptic tweet every now and again divides opinion

And further to RS being a prick....a friend of mine was Bon Jovi's driver in the UK in the early-mid 80s. He says Richie was "a right w@nker". I wouldn't be surprised. What up and coming rockstar in their early 20s isn't....but I think we all hope that over time things improved!

I think any suggestions that he's just a prick in general are a little harsh. Everybody I've ever spoken to who's met him or knows him says he's a great guy and that's how he comes across on stage and when being interviewed.

You won't be surprised to hear that Ronan "Sings Through His Nose" Keating didn't write that song.

Is that Ian Beale in your avatar?

Of course, I certainly wouldn't give him any credit!

And yes, yes it is. Beale with it

Are you even the slightest aware of the magnitude of what you're (unfoundedly) implying?

This. I'm getting more and more confused with every statement, to the point I'm not even sure I'm bothering to try and understand them at all anymore.

I think we share the same brain, I read that post this morning and that line jumped out at me in big neon letters. I wanted to post something but knew whatever I posted would come off sounding snarky. So I didn't. Glad you did.

I sometimes think you share the same brain, too. Perhaps mine simply isn’t awake yet, but what is it that you both think is being implied?

(I’m probably going to regret asking that later... when I’m fully cognizant…

"Beale with it"

The single most profound thing said in over 800 pages.

Nobody can follow that.
